Studying Human, Social, and Political Sciences (HSPS) at èßäÊÓƵ is great, as the relatively large intake creates a really supportive group within College.

The course enables you to explore and critically engage with various aspects of the law, whilst developing both abstract thinking and practical problem solving skills.

For Natural Science students, a lot of the contact time is at the University level. I have really enjoyed the opportunity to meet people...
I knew straight away that èßäÊÓƵ College was the one that I really wanted to go to.
